Earth
The planet earth seen unprecedented GDP growth in population and GDP this period, with a 64 million increase in population and GDP growing to over 2.3 billion. The increase has been a result of corporations bringing their production lines into full efficiency along with the increased markets for civilian services and end products. The growth of the civilian service sector has been the main factor in GDP growth, expanding over 470% to over 30,000 units from turn 4000 to 8000. End Products have increased as well but have not kept pace with the market growth, increasing from 2,735 to 16,051, showing a 486% growth over the reported period. Despite this growth, end products and civilian services remain undersupplied on Earth.
Earth Growth Forecast
With the lack of supply for end products and civilian services,
forecasters are predicting growth on earth to level out during
the coming period, with Earth already showing a mild decline
in population. This trend is expected to continue for several
hundred turns before stabilizing, with small growth expected
throughout the rest of the period.
Indicators predict continued growth of the civilian services and end product markets, but the GDP growth will cool as
corporations continue to reach their logistic caps. Growth models show a sharp decline in GDP growth during this period, which is
a natural outcome following the tremendous periods of growth from the previous periods. Growth is still expected to be storngly positive for the first half of the period from 8,000 to 12,000, before slowing in the second half as manufacturing growth slows. Interstellar trade is expected to see an increase as corporations continue importing resources from off world mining locations.
Mars
The city of Ninde has seen strong growth last quarter, outgrowing the median predictions forecasted by most economic models. The city now hosts over 5 million inhabitants and boasts the highest GDP per capita in the system at 39,724; This is due to the large number of metal exports to foreign markets. Mars has seen a strong increase in manfuacturing over the last 1,000 turns with end product output growing to 850, making it less much dependent on foreign imports.
Mars Growth Forecast
Mars growth has slowed considerably, and is currently remaining stable near 5 million. Population is expected to begin increasing as the manufacturing segment continues to grow, forcing demand levels back down and increasing growth. Expect moderate growth, with models predicting population rising 2-3 million in the coming period.
Mercury
The city of Dupree has seen remarkable growth as TCS has invested heavily in its' growth. Population has stabilized as demand levels have risen for services and end products. Mercury is currently under the control of the guild TCS and appears to be a controlled market. Corporations seeking to sell here should first contact the local government concerning product sales and infrastructure development.
Mercury Growth Forecast
Mercury has seen a small decline at the end of last quarter, but shows signs of continuing growth into the future. The city will likely reach over 10 million population by turn 12,000. GDP growth is expected to be strong as more TCS members invest in industry and infrastructure there.
Product Markets
End Product prices have remained fairly constant in the previous 500 turns, with
only a 5% increase in demand levels during that time. Furnishings and gadgets
are experiencing high demands att 123% and 117% respectively. Power Cells
have the lowest industrial output levels of components, reflecting the high demand
levels seen on Eath.
Construction and alloys remain overproduced, with levels remaining at extremely
low profit margins. Most other products offer good profits both on earth and
across the solar system.
